I'm not one of them and I never lived as one of them. With that said, do you know what it's like to be one and can you really speak for them and their experiences. Now, I can attest to what it's like being poor and barely making enough to survive and being reliant on someone else is poor because I have experienced that during my lifetime.
I doubt that anyone not homosexual understands homosexuality. I have seen theories from psychological trauma to being attracted to the 'wrong' pheromones... but nothing convincing. From what I have heard homosexuals say, they often cannot imagine being straight.
Nobody chooses homosexuality, so far as I can tell.
